Welcome to Secret Breakfast / An exclusive newsletter, the best place to start your Election Day with the Italian Michelin Stars, emergency pickles, and the forces of chaos

America’s Deciding Her Future

Hi there!

It’s Election week in the US and polls suggest that we’re expecting a tight race.

Here in Europe, we’ll probably watch the news till late in the night (and the following morning), which usually happens for events like - choose your poison - the Super Bowl, the Academy Awards, the America’s Cup, or the NBA finals.

We should probably think about some snacks (★70 recipes) for the night, or maybe some healthy bites (★45 recipes). Or an Anti-Anxiety Election Day Menu with emergency pickles, like this.

Good luck, American friends!
